Toxic Splash Favia
Toxic Splash Favia Coral (Favia sp.)
Description:
The Toxic Splash Favia Coral is a vibrant and eye-catching LPS coral, renowned for its electrifying colouration and striking contrast. Its surface typically features an intense neon green base splashed with bright yellow, turquoise, or orange highlights, resembling a living mosaic. Under actinic or blue-spectrum lighting, the βtoxicβ fluorescence of this coral glows vividly, making it an exceptional centerpiece or accent in any reef aquarium.
Hardy, adaptable and fast-growing, the Toxic Splash Favia is ideal for reef keepers looking to add dramatic colour and texture to their tank. Each piece is aquacultured or sustainably sourced to ensure excellent adaptability and long-term success in home reef systems.
Care Level: Easy to Moderate
Temperament: Semi-aggressive (may extend sweeper tentacles at night)
Placement: Mid to lower regions of the aquarium, leaving space between neighboring corals.

Feeding & Nutrition:
The Toxic Splash Favia gains energy through photosynthesis via its zooxanthellae, but benefits from supplemental feeding. Target-feed 1β2 times per week with small meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, or fine coral foods to encourage faster growth and richer colouration.
Notes:
Provide adequate spacing to prevent aggression with neighboring corals.
Avoid strong, direct flow that may irritate polyps.
Stable, mature systems promote vibrant colour and steady growth.
Excellent for mixed reef aquariums seeking a splash of fluorescent contrast.
